Obnoxious Fans

If I were to give an award to an NFL team's fan base, I would have to give it to the fans of the New England Patriots after what I saw on Sunday.
It was late in the game on Sunday in New England, with the Patriots beating the New York Jets 17-10, the Pats were in the red zone and threatening to score, when referee Jeremy Boger had to temporarily suspend play, due to fans throwing snowballs onto the field. There were fans along the end zone throwing snowballs, and many of them were hitting the back judge. That tells me that they didn't like the officials calls, and I think they were being selfish. That's just my opinion, (correct me if I'm wrong) here's a team that is undefeated, and winning by 7 points with 3 minutes remaining still throwing for the end zone, and they are going to complain about the officials calls?? I don't think the Pats were running up the score like many others think they do, especially since they were only winning by 7, but I just don't like what the fans were doing.
I hate when people go to games, and think they can do whatever the hell they want, just because they paid the money. I don't mind people heckling/yelling at players, but when you do something to affect the play on the field?! That's just plain ignorant, and I really don't understand it.
Since I just saw the NFL Replay version of Sunday's games, I may have gotten some of the details wrong, and I am sorry if I did, the point of me writing this article is to express my opinion on fans at Football games. I love going to NFL games, but I would never risk going to jail just so I could get 10 seconds of TV, especially when most of the times the network doesn't show a fan getting escorted out, or running onto the field.
NOTE: THIS ARTICLE WASN'T WRITTEN TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE PATRIOTS, JUST FANS IN GENERAL. SO, DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY, YES I'M TALKING TO ALL 45837257486754 PATRIOTS FANS.
